Welcome back to the main chain. ðŸŸ
The BIP-110 fork taught us something important, not about who was right, but about how we disagree.
Many of you believed in mandatory signaling. You fought for it because you care about Bitcoin's soul, even when the rest of us said the adoption wasn't there and the direction would lead us down a dangerous road. That conviction deserves respect, not mockery.
The fork is behind us now. What matters is what we do next.
We have real adversaries, financial censorship, regulatory overreach, CBDCs, and an army of rent seekers who want Bitcoin locked down. They're not fighting among themselves. Neither should we.
The path forward isn't "my implementation wins." It's making Bitcoin so resilient, so open, and so undeniable that the people trying to control it have no lever left to pull.
Welcome back. Let's build together.
